Public bug reported:
To Whom it May Concern,
I just upgraded to Ubuntu LTS 8/04 from Ubuntu 7.10 last week and ever since I
have problems running vmware server console.
I applied the upgrades for vmware that I read about in other bugs and in some
forums and finally got it to function but only if I run it from the command
line typing: sudo vmware.
I cannot start vmware server console from a launcher I had created on my
desktop back in 7.04 nor if I go to the command line and run vmware without
sudo.
This is the error message I get:
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::length_error'
what(): basic_string::_S_create
/usr/share/themes/Clearlooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:41: error: unexpected character `@',
expected string constant

vmware: ../../src/xcb_lock.c:77: _XGetXCBBuffer: Assertion `((int) ((xcb_req) -
(dpy->request)) >= 0)' failed.
What I found very interesting is that it complains about an unexpected
character '@' when using ClearLooks theme. That made me think that there
was a problem with the theme but it does not matter what theme I use I
always get that error but replacing ClearLooks with the name of the
theme I am running at that moment.
Thanks for your help.
Keep the good work up.
